[Sweet romance + Comedy + Marriage before love + Direct approach + Both leads are witty] [Spoiler 1: The son is the male lead’s biological child. If this bothers you, please avoid.] [Spoiler 2: About twenty chapters involve the entertainment industry and reality shows, but it’s just the female lead observing drama! She doesn’t enter the industry herself! If this bothers you, please avoid.]The entire story has a comedic style. The protagonist’s mother won’t appear, and there’s no melodrama between the main couple because others have already used up all the drama!My name is Nian Sui’an, and I’m 25 years old. My parents gave me this name hoping for my safety and well-being year after year, but unfortunately, even this simple wish couldn’t be fulfilled. At 3 AM one day, while I was enjoying a CEO’s passionate love story on a certain green app, my phone knocked me into a strange world. When I opened my eyes again, I found myself as a young stepmother in a CEO world. From then on, the drama runs deep, and integrity becomes a stranger. Send me 50 bucks, and I’ll share my plan to enjoy all this juicy gossip.My name is Gu Junxing. As you can tell from my name, I’m definitely a CEO. However, in the world of CEOs, due to my law-abiding nature and punctual tax payments, I can only be an ordinary entrepreneur. But recently, at the ripe age of 35, I married a 25-year-old young wife, which suddenly earned me a place in the “May-December Romance” section of the “CEO Trending List.”My name is Gu Zhijing. As you can tell from my name, I’m also destined to become a CEO. But right now, I’m only 15 years old, so I’m just an ordinary high school student.

Lilian laid on his deathbed, his life nearing its end.Surrounded by the cold quiet of a hospital room, he had spent his last months immersed in novels on his phone.One novel, in particular, had captured his heart, and he yearned to finish it before succumbing to his incurable disease.But as the end drew near, he realized he couldn't access the final volume.Helplessly, he regretted the opportunities he had missed in life.And death had finally come knocking.“If only there were another world... that could offer me a second chance,” He whispered.“If only I could live a second life... in a time when I had listened.”

“The masterminds are cooler than heroes,” I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game.Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit.Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not?***[Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.]What?[Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.]Wait, what?![Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.]And, why would I do that?![Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.]Why would I save him?![The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?]Ah! I give up...It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things.In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker.I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need?Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though.I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse!Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is...[Failure: Destruction of the World.]It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped.If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing.[Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.]“If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne.”And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.
